Chapter 2. Installing Options

This chapter provides basic information that is needed to install hardware options in
your server. For more detailed installation information, refer to the User’s Reference on
the IBM xSeries Documentation CD.

Working with adapters

Your server comes with two peripheral component interconnect (PCI) adapter slots on
the system board with riser cards installed in them.

Attention:

Your server comes with an integrated video controller on the system

board. When you install a video adapter in a PCI slot, the server BIOS automatically
disables the integrated video controller. This allows the video adapter in the PCI slot
to control the video functions for your monitor.

The following illustration shows the location of the 33 MHz PCI expansion slots on
the system board.

Note:

The illustrations in this document might differ slightly from your hardware.

PCI slot 1

33 MHz (J10)

PCI slot 2
